J0N's (Jonnyjonjon's) LCR. Gone But Not Forgotten.

Good stuff

Is it easy to take the old dipstick tube out then?

 

[J0N]

In theory they're easy to remove but the plastic becomes brittle over time with the heat and they're liable to break so I'd get a new one before you try to take the old one off. You just remove the mani cover and then you'll see a black bracket that needs to be removed, this is just a case of removing two cap head screws with an allen key. Then the tube/guide should just pull off.

Damn, trust you to notice, lol.

Cheers. The glovebox liners are from TPS or a main dealer, around £7 iirc;

Cheers mate

Santa brought me some lovely shiney Forge Strut-Tops. they actually
look better than I thought they'd look and definately an improvement
on the crappy black plastic things. I was holding off buying these so I
thought I'd seize the Christmas prezzie opportunity and I'm glad I did.

Should get the Autosol out really but I reckon I'll wait until the weather
warms up a bit.

 

[Mashburn]

Looking good!

 

[J0N]

Cheers Mash.

Very nice Jon.
If you ever fancy a trip to London let me know and we'll sort your manifold out

 

[J0N]

Damn, I should've known better than to think you would'nt notice, Darren. Lol.

 

[J0N]

Front Sparco Mud Flaps to help keep the crap at bay.

 

[D.K]

They look alright mate.
Mmm wonder if I can make carbon ones

 

[vwbassett]

Like it and one of the last mods ive wanted for mine, do they hit the floor at all on road humps, ramps etc?

 

[J0N]

They touch the floor when pulling off my drive and they touch those horrible rubber speed bumps that they have at supermarkets, the ones that are like driving up a kerb.

 

[cap r 225]

Do they keep much crap off the car?

 

[EmDee]

I love them! This was one of the next things I was gonna do, but since I didn't get around to it and winter's almost over they might wait till autumn.
They look really nice on yours, I'm a big fan of platinum LCRs.


EDIT: Notice how in this post I resisted the temptation to say "Nice flaps"

huhuhuhuhu
